research Eval
=============

Status: failed
Score: 56/100
Risk: high
Decision: do_not_auto_install
Policy: block
Reason: Trust score: Sparse or weak trust signals. Treat this as an experimental candidate.

Install:
npx skills add GiaSip/giasip-skills --skill research

Required checks:
- PASS Task fit: Task wording matches this skill metadata.
- PASS Install path: Install handoff is available.
- PASS Install command safety: standard package or runtime install path
- FAIL Trust score: Sparse or weak trust signals. Treat this as an experimental candidate.
- WARN Audit score: Needs review
- FAIL Agent safety gate: This skill should not be selected by an agent without explicit human security review.
- PASS License clarity: MIT
- FAIL Permission surface: secrets or environment access, shell or command execution

Warnings:
- Audit score: Needs review
- README/SKILL.md completeness: Public metadata needs stronger README/SKILL.md context
- High-risk permission hints: Shell or command execution, Secrets or environment access
- Dependency or permission surface needs review
- Permission surface may require sandboxing
- Financial research output is not financial advice; require human review before any live investment decision
- The SKILL.md references a Python script `verify-quotes.py` that is not included in the excerpt. While no evidence of malicious behavior is present, the script's exact implementation has not been audited in this review.
- The skill depends on external Deep Research platforms (e.g., ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity) and requires the user to manually mark platform availability in `references/platform-profiles.md`; incomplete setup could lead to uninformed routing.
- The runtime contract mentions worker concurrency and Codex-specific collaboration; if the skill is used on other hosts, the fallback behavior (sequential execution) must be disclosed and respected, but the SKILL.md already covers this.
- Low GitHub adoption signal
- Financial research output is not financial advice; require human review before any live investment decision.
- Quality score needs review

Validation plan:
1. Inspect repository, README/SKILL.md, license, and recent commits before production use.
2. Install in an isolated workspace or sandbox with no production secrets available.
3. Run the smallest representative task and record files touched, commands run, network access, and outputs.
4. Compare the selected skill against at least one alternative when the eval status is review or failed.
5. Promote only after the agent reports a successful verification result and unresolved warnings are accepted.

Do not use when:
- teams that need a vendor-supported SLA
- production agents without a repository review
- Low GitHub adoption signal
- The SKILL.md references a Python script `verify-quotes.py` that is not included in the excerpt. While no evidence of malicious behavior is present, the script's exact implementation has not been audited in this review.
- High-risk permission hints: Shell or command execution, Secrets or environment access
- Dependency or permission surface needs review
- Permission surface may require sandboxing
- Financial research output is not financial advice; require human review before any live investment decision
